Definitions

  • This invention relates to sulfonamide derivatives. More particularly, this invention relates to heteroaryl substituted sulphonamide derivatives and to processes for the preparation of, intermediates used in the preparation of, compositions containing, and the uses of, such derivatives.
  • the sulfonamide derivatives of the present invention are sodium channel modulators and have a number of therapeutic applications, particularly in the treatment of pain.
  • Voltage-gated sodium channels are found in all excitable cells including myocytes of muscle and neurons of the central and peripheral nervous system. In neuronal cells, sodium channels are primarily responsible for generating the rapid upstroke of the action potential. In this manner sodium channels are essential to the initiation and propagation of electrical signals in the nervous system. Proper and appropriate function of sodium channels is therefore necessary for normal function of the neuron. Consequently, aberrant sodium channel function is thought to underlie a variety of medical disorders (see Hubner C A, Jentsch T J, Hum. Mol. Genet., 11(20): 2435-45 (2002) for a general review of inherited ion channel disorders) including epilepsy (Yogeeswari et al., Curr.
  • VGSC voltage-gated sodium channel alpha subunits
  • SCNx SCNx
  • SCNAx SCNx
  • Na v x.x The VGSC family has been phylogenetically divided into two subfamilies Na v 1.x (all but SCN6A) and Na v 2.x (SCN6A).
  • the Nav1.x subfamily can be functionally subdivided into two groups, those which are sensitive to blocking by tetrodotoxin (TTX-sensitive or TTX-s) and those which are resistant to blocking by tetrodotoxin (TTX-resistant or TTX-r).
  • the SCN5A gene product (Na v 1.5, H1) is almost exclusively expressed in cardiac tissue, is thought to play a central role in the generation of the cardia action potential and propagation of electrical impulses in the heart, and has also been shown to underlie a variety of cardiac arrhythmias and conduction disorders (Liu H, et al., Am. J. Pharmacogenomics, 3(3): 173-9 (2003)). Consequently, blockers of Nav1.5 have found clinical utility in treatment of such disorders (Srivatsa U, et al., Curr. Cardiol. Rep., 4(5): 401-10 (2002)), but binding of drugs to Nav1.5 may also result in abnormal cardiac rhythms.
  • TTX-resistant sodium channels SCN10A, PN3, SNS
  • SCN11A, NaN, SNS2 TTX-resistant sodium channels
  • MS multiple sclerosis
  • a rodent model of MS Black, J A, et al., Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA, 97(21): 11598-602 (2000).
  • Evidence for involvement in nociception is both associative (preferential expression in nociceptive neurons) and direct (genetic knockout).
  • Nav1.8-null mice exhibited typical nociceptive behavior in response to acute noxious stimulation but had significant deficits in referred pain and hyperalgesia (Laird J M, et al., J. Neurosci., 22(19):8352-6 (2002)).
  • the TTX-sensitive subset of voltage-gated sodium channels is expressed in a broader range of tissues than the TTX-resistant channels and has been associated with a variety of human disorders.
  • the Na v 1.1 channel well exemplifies this general pattern, as it is expressed in both the central and peripheral nervous system and has been associated with several seizure disorders including Generalized Epilepsy with Febrile Seizures Plus, types 1 and 2 (GEFS+1, GEFS+2), Severe Myoclonic Epilepsy of Infancy (SMEI), and others (Claes, L, et al., Am. J. Hum. Genet., 68: 1327-1332 (2001); Escayg, A., Am. J. Hum.
  • Nav1.2 channel is largely, if not exclusively, expressed in the central nervous system and quantitative studies indicate it is the most abundant VGSC of the CNS. Mutations of Nav1.2 are also associated with seizure disorders (Berkovic, S. F., et al., Ann. Neurol., 55: 550-557 (2004)) and Nav1.2-null “knockout” mice exhibit perinatal lethality (Planells-Cases R et al., Biophys. J., 78(6):2878-91 (2000)).
  • Nav1.4 Nav1.4 gene expression is largely restricted to skeletal muscle and, accordingly, mutations of this gene are associated with a variety of movement disorders (Ptacek, L. J., Am. J. Hum. Genet., 49: 851-854 (1991); Hudson A J, Brain, 118(2): 547-63 (1995)). The majority of these disorders are related to hyperactivity or “gain-of-function” and have been found to respond to treatment with sodium channel blockers (Desaphy J F, et al., J. Physiol., 554(2): 321-34 (2004)).
  • SCN3A nor the SCN8A VGSC genes have been conclusively linked to heritable disorders in humans.
  • Loss-of-function mutations of the SCN8A gene are known in mice and yield increasingly debilitating phenotypes, dependent upon the remaining functionality of the gene products (Meister M H, Genetica, 122(1): 37-45 (2004)).
  • Homozygous null mutations cause progressive motor neuron failure leading to paralysis and death, while heterozygous null animals are asymptomatic.
  • Homozygous med J mice have nearly 90% reduction in functional Nav1.6 current and exhibit dystonia and muscle weakness but are still viable.
  • Nav1.6 is expressed at high levels in dorsal root ganglia and can be found in spinal sensory tracts (Tzoumaka E, J. Neurosci. Res., 60(1): 37-44 (2000)). It should be noted however that expression of Nav1.6 is not restricted to sensory neurons of the periphery. Like the Nav1.6 channel, expression of the Nav1.3 VGSC can also be detected in both the central and peripheral nervous system, though levels in the adult CNS are generally much higher than PNS. During development and the early postnatal period, Nav1.3 is expressed in peripheral neurons but this expression wanes as the animal matures (Shah B S, J.
  • Nav1.3 expression is upregulated, more closely mimicking the developmental expression patterns (Hains B C, J. Neurosci., 23(26): 8881-92 (2003)).
  • Coincident with the recurrence of Nav1.3 expression is the emergence of a rapidly re-priming sodium current in the injured axons with a biophysical profile similar to Nav1.3 (Leffler A, et al., J. Neurophysiol., 88(2): 650-8 (2002)).
  • the Na v 1.7 (PN1, SCN9A) VGSC is sensitive to blocking by tetrodotoxin and is preferentially expressed in peripheral sympathetic and sensory neurons.
  • the SCN9A gene has been cloned from a number of species, including human, rat, and rabbit and shows ⁇ 90% amino acid identity between the human and rat genes (Toledo-Aral et al., Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA, 94(4): 1527-1532 (1997)).
  • Na v 1.7 may play a key role in various pain states, including acute, inflammatory and/or neuropathic pain.
  • Na v 1.7 protein has been shown to accumulate in neuromas, particularly painful neuromas (Kretschmer et al., Acta. Neurochir . ( Wien ), 144(8): 803-10 (2002)).
  • sodium channel-blocking agents have been reported to be effective in the treatment of various disease states, and have found particular use as local anesthetics and in the treatment of cardiac arrhythmias. It has also been reported that sodium channel-blocking agents may be useful in the treatment of pain, including acute, chronic, inflammatory and/or neuropathic pain; see, for example, Wood, J N et al., J. Neurobiol., 61(1): 55-71 (2004). Preclinical evidence demonstrates that sodium channel-blocking agents can suppress neuronal firing in peripheral and central sensory neurons, and, it is via this mechanism, that they may be useful for relieving pain. In some instances, abnormal or ectopic firing can originate from injured or otherwise sensitized neurons.
  • sodium channels can accumulate in peripheral nerves at sites of axonal injury and may function as generators of ectopic firing (Devor et al. J. Neurosci., 132: 1976 (1993)). Changes in sodium channel expression and excitability have also been shown in animal models of inflammatory pain where treatment with proinflammatory materials (CFA, Carrageenan) promoted pain-related behaviors and correlated with increased expression of sodium channel subunits (Gould et al., Brain Res., 824(2): 296-9 (1999); Black et al., Pain, 108(3): 237-47 (2004)). Alterations in either the level of, expression of, or distribution of sodium channels, therefore, may have a major influence on neuronal excitability and pain-related behaviors. As such there is a desire to seek new sodium channel modulators.

  • the treatment of pain, particularly neuropathic, nociceptive and inflammatory pain, is a preferred use.
  • Physiological pain is an important protective mechanism designed to warn of danger from potentially injurious stimuli from the external environment.
  • the system operates through a specific set of primary sensory neurones and is activated by noxious stimuli via peripheral transducing mechanisms (see Millan, 1999, Prog. Neurobiol., 57, 1-164 for a review).
  • These sensory fibres are known as nociceptors and are characteristically small diameter axons with slow conduction velocities. Nociceptors encode the intensity, duration and quality of noxious stimulus and by virtue of their topographically organised projection to the spinal cord, the location of the stimulus.
  • nociceptive nerve fibres of which there are two main types, A-delta fibres (myelinated) and C fibres (non-myelinated).
  • A-delta fibres myelinated
  • C fibres non-myelinated.
  • the activity generated by nociceptor input is transferred, after complex processing in the dorsal horn, either directly, or via brain stem relay nuclei, to the ventrobasal thalamus and then on to the cortex, where the sensation of pain is generated.
  • Pain may generally be classified as acute or chronic. Acute pain begins suddenly and is short-lived (usually twelve weeks or less). It is usually associated with a specific cause such as a specific injury and is often sharp and severe. It is the kind of pain that can occur after specific injuries resulting from surgery, dental work, a strain or a sprain. Acute pain does not generally result in any persistent psychological response. In contrast, chronic pain is long-term pain, typically persisting for more than three months and leading to significant psychological and emotional problems. Common examples of chronic pain are neuropathic pain (e.g. painful diabetic neuropathy, postherpetic neuralgia), carpal tunnel syndrome, back pain, headache, cancer pain, arthritic pain and chronic post-surgical pain.
  • neuropathic pain e.g. painful diabetic neuropathy, postherpetic neuralgia
  • carpal tunnel syndrome e.g. painful diabetic neuropathy, postherpetic neuralgia
  • back pain e.g. painful diabetic neuropathy, postherpetic neuralgia
  • Clinical pain is present when discomfort and abnormal sensitivity feature among the patient's symptoms. Patients tend to be quite heterogeneous and may present with various pain symptoms. Such symptoms include: 1) spontaneous pain which may be dull, burning, or stabbing; 2) exaggerated pain responses to noxious stimuli (hyperalgesia); and 3) pain produced by normally innocuous stimuli (allodynia—Meyer et al., 1994, Textbook of Pain, 13-44). Although patients suffering from various forms of acute and chronic pain may have similar symptoms, the underlying mechanisms may be different and may, therefore, require different treatment strategies. Pain can also therefore be divided into a number of different subtypes according to differing pathophysiology, including nociceptive, inflammatory and neuropathic pain.
  • Nociceptive pain is induced by tissue injury or by intense stimuli with the potential to cause injury. Pain afferents are activated by transduction of stimuli by nociceptors at the site of injury and activate neurons in the spinal cord at the level of their termination. This is then relayed up the spinal tracts to the brain where pain is perceived (Meyer et al., 1994, Textbook of Pain, 13-44). The activation of nociceptors activates two types of afferent nerve fibres. Myelinated A-delta fibres transmit rapidly and are responsible for sharp and stabbing pain sensations, whilst unmyelinated C fibres transmit at a slower rate and convey a dull or aching pain.
  • Moderate to severe acute nociceptive pain is a prominent feature of pain from central nervous system trauma, strains/sprains, burns, myocardial infarction and acute pancreatitis, post-operative pain (pain following any type of surgical procedure), posttraumatic pain, renal colic, cancer pain and back pain.
  • Cancer pain may be chronic pain such as tumour related pain (e.g. bone pain, headache, facial pain or visceral pain) or pain associated with cancer therapy (e.g. postchemotherapy syndrome, chronic postsurgical pain syndrome or post radiation syndrome). Cancer pain may also occur in response to chemotherapy, immunotherapy, hormonal therapy or radiotherapy.
  • Back pain may be due to herniated or ruptured intervertabral discs or abnormalities of the lumber facet joints, sacroiliac joints, paraspinal muscles or the posterior longitudinal ligament. Back pain may resolve naturally but in some patients, where it lasts over 12 weeks, it becomes a chronic condition which can be particularly debilitating.
  • Neuropathic pain is currently defined as pain initiated or caused by a primary lesion or dysfunction in the nervous system. Nerve damage can be caused by trauma and disease and thus the term ‘neuropathic pain’ encompasses many disorders with diverse aetiologies. These include, but are not limited to, peripheral neuropathy, diabetic neuropathy, post herpetic neuralgia, trigeminal neuralgia, back pain, cancer neuropathy, HIV neuropathy, phantom limb pain, carpal tunnel syndrome, central post-stroke pain and pain associated with chronic alcoholism, hypothyroidism, uremia, multiple sclerosis, spinal cord injury, Parkinson's disease, epilepsy and vitamin deficiency. Neuropathic pain is pathological as it has no protective role.
  • neuropathic pain are difficult to treat, as they are often heterogeneous even between patients with the same disease (Woolf & Decosterd, 1999, Pain Supp., 6, S141-S147; Woolf and Mannion, 1999, Lancet, 353, 1959-1964). They include spontaneous pain, which can be continuous, and paroxysmal or abnormal evoked pain, such as hyperalgesia (increased sensitivity to a noxious stimulus) and allodynia (sensitivity to a normally innocuous stimulus).
  • the inflammatory process is a complex series of biochemical and cellular events, activated in response to tissue injury or the presence of foreign substances, which results in swelling and pain (Levine and Taiwo, 1994, Textbook of Pain, 45-56).
  • Arthritic pain is the most common inflammatory pain.
  • Rheumatoid disease is one of the commonest chronic inflammatory conditions in developed countries and rheumatoid arthritis is a common cause of disability. The exact aetiology of rheumatoid arthritis is unknown, but current hypotheses suggest that both genetic and microbiological factors may be important (Grennan & Jayson, 1994, Textbook of Pain, 397-407).
  • Visceral pain is pain associated with the viscera, which encompass the organs of the abdominal cavity. These organs include the sex organs, spleen and part of the digestive system. Pain associated with the viscera can be divided into digestive visceral pain and non-digestive visceral pain.
  • GI gastrointestinal
  • BBD functional bowel disorder
  • IBD inflammatory bowel disease
  • GI disorders include a wide range of disease states that are currently only moderately controlled, including, in respect of FBD, gastro-esophageal reflux, dyspepsia, irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) and functional abdominal pain syndrome (FAPS), and, in respect of IBD, Crohn's disease, ileitis and ulcerative colitis, all of which regularly produce visceral pain.

Description

This application claims benefit under 35 USC 119(e) of U.S. Provisional Application 61/143,920, filed Jan. 12, 2009; U.S. Provisional Application 61/245,726, filed Sep. 25, 2009; and U.S. Provisional Application 61/258,760, filed Nov. 6, 2009.
This invention relates to sulfonamide derivatives. More particularly, this invention relates to heteroaryl substituted sulphonamide derivatives and to processes for the preparation of, intermediates used in the preparation of, compositions containing, and the uses of, such derivatives.
The sulfonamide derivatives of the present invention are sodium channel modulators and have a number of therapeutic applications, particularly in the treatment of pain.
Voltage-gated sodium channels are found in all excitable cells including myocytes of muscle and neurons of the central and peripheral nervous system. In neuronal cells, sodium channels are primarily responsible for generating the rapid upstroke of the action potential. In this manner sodium channels are essential to the initiation and propagation of electrical signals in the nervous system. Proper and appropriate function of sodium channels is therefore necessary for normal function of the neuron. Consequently, aberrant sodium channel function is thought to underlie a variety of medical disorders (see Hubner C A, Jentsch T J, Hum. Mol. Genet., 11(20): 2435-45 (2002) for a general review of inherited ion channel disorders) including epilepsy (Yogeeswari et al., Curr. Drug Targets, 5(7): 589-602 (2004)), arrhythmia (Noble D., Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA, 99(9): 5755-6 (2002)) myotonia (Cannon, S C, Kidney Int. 57(3): 772-9 (2000)), and pain (Wood, J N et al., J. Neurobiol., 61(1): 55-71 (2004)). See Table A, below.

There are currently at least nine known members of the family of voltage-gated sodium channel (VGSC) alpha subunits. Names for this family include SCNx, SCNAx, and Navx.x. The VGSC family has been phylogenetically divided into two subfamilies Nav1.x (all but SCN6A) and Nav2.x (SCN6A). The Nav1.x subfamily can be functionally subdivided into two groups, those which are sensitive to blocking by tetrodotoxin (TTX-sensitive or TTX-s) and those which are resistant to blocking by tetrodotoxin (TTX-resistant or TTX-r).
There are three members of the subgroup of TTX-resistant sodium channels. The SCN5A gene product (Nav1.5, H1) is almost exclusively expressed in cardiac tissue, is thought to play a central role in the generation of the cardia action potential and propagation of electrical impulses in the heart, and has also been shown to underlie a variety of cardiac arrhythmias and conduction disorders (Liu H, et al., Am. J. Pharmacogenomics, 3(3): 173-9 (2003)). Consequently, blockers of Nav1.5 have found clinical utility in treatment of such disorders (Srivatsa U, et al., Curr. Cardiol. Rep., 4(5): 401-10 (2002)), but binding of drugs to Nav1.5 may also result in abnormal cardiac rhythms. The remaining TTX-resistant sodium channels, Nav1.8 (SCN10A, PN3, SNS) and Nav1.9 (SCN11A, NaN, SNS2) are expressed in the peripheral nervous system and show preferential expression in primary nociceptive neurons. Human genetic variants of these channels have not been associated with any inherited clinical disorder. However, aberrant expression of Nav1.8 has been found in the CNS of human multiple sclerosis (MS) patients and also in a rodent model of MS (Black, J A, et al., Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA, 97(21): 11598-602 (2000)). Evidence for involvement in nociception is both associative (preferential expression in nociceptive neurons) and direct (genetic knockout). Nav1.8-null mice exhibited typical nociceptive behavior in response to acute noxious stimulation but had significant deficits in referred pain and hyperalgesia (Laird J M, et al., J. Neurosci., 22(19):8352-6 (2002)).
The TTX-sensitive subset of voltage-gated sodium channels is expressed in a broader range of tissues than the TTX-resistant channels and has been associated with a variety of human disorders. The Nav1.1 channel well exemplifies this general pattern, as it is expressed in both the central and peripheral nervous system and has been associated with several seizure disorders including Generalized Epilepsy with Febrile Seizures Plus, types 1 and 2 (GEFS+1, GEFS+2), Severe Myoclonic Epilepsy of Infancy (SMEI), and others (Claes, L, et al., Am. J. Hum. Genet., 68: 1327-1332 (2001); Escayg, A., Am. J. Hum. Genet., 68: 866-873 (2001); Lossin, C, Neuron, 34: 877-884 (2002)). The Nav1.2 channel is largely, if not exclusively, expressed in the central nervous system and quantitative studies indicate it is the most abundant VGSC of the CNS. Mutations of Nav1.2 are also associated with seizure disorders (Berkovic, S. F., et al., Ann. Neurol., 55: 550-557 (2004)) and Nav1.2-null “knockout” mice exhibit perinatal lethality (Planells-Cases R et al., Biophys. J., 78(6):2878-91 (2000)). Expression of the Nav1.4 gene is largely restricted to skeletal muscle and, accordingly, mutations of this gene are associated with a variety of movement disorders (Ptacek, L. J., Am. J. Hum. Genet., 49: 851-854 (1991); Hudson A J, Brain, 118(2): 547-63 (1995)). The majority of these disorders are related to hyperactivity or “gain-of-function” and have been found to respond to treatment with sodium channel blockers (Desaphy J F, et al., J. Physiol., 554(2): 321-34 (2004)).
Neither the SCN3A nor the SCN8A VGSC genes have been conclusively linked to heritable disorders in humans. Loss-of-function mutations of the SCN8A gene are known in mice and yield increasingly debilitating phenotypes, dependent upon the remaining functionality of the gene products (Meister M H, Genetica, 122(1): 37-45 (2004)). Homozygous null mutations cause progressive motor neuron failure leading to paralysis and death, while heterozygous null animals are asymptomatic. Homozygous medJ mice have nearly 90% reduction in functional Nav1.6 current and exhibit dystonia and muscle weakness but are still viable. Evidence for Nav1.6 being important for nociception is largely associative as Nav1.6 is expressed at high levels in dorsal root ganglia and can be found in spinal sensory tracts (Tzoumaka E, J. Neurosci. Res., 60(1): 37-44 (2000)). It should be noted however that expression of Nav1.6 is not restricted to sensory neurons of the periphery. Like the Nav1.6 channel, expression of the Nav1.3 VGSC can also be detected in both the central and peripheral nervous system, though levels in the adult CNS are generally much higher than PNS. During development and the early postnatal period, Nav1.3 is expressed in peripheral neurons but this expression wanes as the animal matures (Shah B S, J. Physiol., 534(3): 763-76 (2001); Schaller K L, Cerebellum, 2(1): 2-9 (2003)). Following neuronal insult, Nav1.3 expression is upregulated, more closely mimicking the developmental expression patterns (Hains B C, J. Neurosci., 23(26): 8881-92 (2003)). Coincident with the recurrence of Nav1.3 expression is the emergence of a rapidly re-priming sodium current in the injured axons with a biophysical profile similar to Nav1.3 (Leffler A, et al., J. Neurophysiol., 88(2): 650-8 (2002)). Treatment of injured axons with high levels of GDNF has been shown to diminish the rapidly repriming sodium current and reverse thermal and mechanical pain-related behaviors in a rat model of nerve injury, presumably by down-regulating the expression of Nav1.3 (Boucher T J, Curr. Opin. Pharmacol., 1(1): 66-72 (2001)). Specific down-regulation of Nav1.3 via treatment with antisense oligonucleotides has also been shown to reverse pain-related behaviors following spinal cord injury (Hains B C, J. Neurosci., 23(26): 8881-92 (2003)).
The Nav1.7 (PN1, SCN9A) VGSC is sensitive to blocking by tetrodotoxin and is preferentially expressed in peripheral sympathetic and sensory neurons. The SCN9A gene has been cloned from a number of species, including human, rat, and rabbit and shows ˜90% amino acid identity between the human and rat genes (Toledo-Aral et al., Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA, 94(4): 1527-1532 (1997)).
An increasing body of evidence suggests that Nav1.7 may play a key role in various pain states, including acute, inflammatory and/or neuropathic pain. Deletion of the SCN9A gene in nociceptive neurons of mice led to a reduction in mechanical and thermal pain thresholds and reduction or abolition of inflammatory pain responses (Nassar et al., Proc Natl Acad Sci USA, 101(34): 12706-11 (2004)). In humans, Nav1.7 protein has been shown to accumulate in neuromas, particularly painful neuromas (Kretschmer et al., Acta. Neurochir. (Wien), 144(8): 803-10 (2002)). Gain of function mutations of Nav1.7, both familial and sporadic, have been linked to primary erythermalgia, a disease characterized by burning pain and inflammation of the extremities (Yang et al., J. Med. Genet., 41(3): 171-4 (2004), and paroxysmal extreme pain disorder (Waxman, S G Neurology. 7;69(6): 505-7(2007)). Congruent with this observation is the report that the non-selective sodium channel blockers lidocaine and mexiletine can provide symptomatic relief in cases of familial erythermalgia (Legroux-Crepel et al., Ann. Dermatol Venereol., 130: 429-433) and carbamazepine is effective in reducing the number and severity of attacks in PEPD (Fertleman et al, Neuron.; 52(5):767-74 (2006). Further evidence of the role of Nav1.7 in pain is found in the phenotype of loss of function mutations of the SCN9A gene. Cox and colleagues (Nature, 444(7121):894-8 (2006)) were the first to report an association between loss-of-function mutations of SNC9A and congenital indifference to pain (CIP), a rare autosomal recessive disorder characterized by a complete indifference or insensitivity to painful stimuli. Subsequent studies have revealed a number of different mutations that result in a loss of function of the SCN9A gene and the CIP phenotype (Goldberg et al, Clin Genet.; 71(4): 311-9 (2007), Ahmad et al, Hum Mol Genet. 1; 16(17): 2114-21 (2007)).
Sodium channel-blocking agents have been reported to be effective in the treatment of various disease states, and have found particular use as local anesthetics and in the treatment of cardiac arrhythmias. It has also been reported that sodium channel-blocking agents may be useful in the treatment of pain, including acute, chronic, inflammatory and/or neuropathic pain; see, for example, Wood, J N et al., J. Neurobiol., 61(1): 55-71 (2004). Preclinical evidence demonstrates that sodium channel-blocking agents can suppress neuronal firing in peripheral and central sensory neurons, and, it is via this mechanism, that they may be useful for relieving pain. In some instances, abnormal or ectopic firing can originate from injured or otherwise sensitized neurons. For example, it has been shown that sodium channels can accumulate in peripheral nerves at sites of axonal injury and may function as generators of ectopic firing (Devor et al. J. Neurosci., 132: 1976 (1993)). Changes in sodium channel expression and excitability have also been shown in animal models of inflammatory pain where treatment with proinflammatory materials (CFA, Carrageenan) promoted pain-related behaviors and correlated with increased expression of sodium channel subunits (Gould et al., Brain Res., 824(2): 296-9 (1999); Black et al., Pain, 108(3): 237-47 (2004)). Alterations in either the level of, expression of, or distribution of sodium channels, therefore, may have a major influence on neuronal excitability and pain-related behaviors. As such there is a desire to seek new sodium channel modulators.
WO-A-2005/054176 discusses peroxisome proliferator activated receptor modulators.
EP-A-1088819 discusses 6-azauracil derivatives, which are stated to be thyroid receptor ligands.
International patent application WO-A-2005/013914 (publication date 17 Feb. 2005) discloses compounds, in particular heteroarylamino sulfonylphenyl derivatives, which are useful as inhibitors of voltage gated sodium channels with a number of therapeutic uses, including the treatment of pain.
International patent application WO-A-2008/118758 (publication date 2 Oct. 2008) discloses compounds, in particular aryl sulphonamides, which are sodium channel modulators with a number of therapeutic uses, particularly for the treatment of pain.
International patent application WO-A-2009/012242 (publication date 22 Jan. 2009) discloses compounds, in particular N-thiazolyl benzenesulfonamides, which are sodium channel modulators with a number of therapeutic uses, particularly for the treatment of pain.
However, there remains a need for still further new sodium channel modulators, including modulators which are potentially able to block activity at a given sodium channel. The compounds of the present invention described herein are selective Nav1.7 channel modulators. In particular, they show an affinity for the Nav1.7 channel which is greater than their affinity for Nav1.5 channels. Preferred compounds of the invention show selectivity for the Nav1.7 channel as compared with the Nav1.5. Advantageously, the compounds of the invention show little or no affinity for the Nav1.5 channel.
The compounds of the present invention, being Nav1.7 modulators, are therefore potentially useful in the treatment of a wide range of disorders, particularly pain. The treatment of pain is a preferred use. All forms of pain are potentially treatable with the compounds of the present invention including acute pain; chronic pain; neuropathic pain; inflammatory pain; visceral pain; nociceptive pain including post-surgical pain; and mixed pain types involving the viscera, gastrointestinal tract, cranial structures, musculoskeletal system, spine, urogenital system, cardiovascular system and CNS, including cancer pain, back and orofacial pain.
Other conditions that may be treated with the compounds of the present invention include anal fissure, neuronal injury, spinal injury and epilepsy.
It is an objective of the invention to provide new Nav1.7 channel modulators and that, preferably, such new modulators are suitable for further development as drug candidates. Preferred compounds should bind potently to the Nav1.7 channel, show functional activity as Nav1.7 channel modulators, and preferably show little affinity for other sodium channels, particularly Nav1.5. Furthermore, the preferred compounds should have one or more of the following improved properties: be well absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract; be metabolically stable; have an improved metabolic profile, in particular with respect to the toxicity or allergenicity of any metabolites formed; or possess favourable pharmacokinetic properties whilst still retaining their activity profile as Nav1.7 channel modulators. It is further preferred that they should also be non-toxic and demonstrate few side-effects. Furthermore, such preferred drug candidates should preferably exist in a physical form that is stable, non-hygroscopic and easily formulated. Preferred compounds of the present invention are selective for the Nav1.7 channel over Nav1.5, which may potentially lead to one or more improvements in the side-effect profile. Without wishing to be bound by theory, such selectivity, is thought to advantageously reduce any cardiovascular side effects which may be associated with affinity for the Nav1.5 channel. Preferably compounds of the present invention demonstrate a selectivity of 10-fold, more preferably 30-fold, most preferably 100-fold, for the Nav1.7 channel when compared to their selectivity for the Nav1.5 channel whilst maintaining good potency for the Nav1.7 channel. In addition, the most preferred compounds of the present invention may optionally also show selectivity for the Nav1.7 channel over Nav1.3, whilst maintaining good potency for the Nav1.7 channel.

The invention therefore provides as Embodiment 1 a compound of the formula (I):

In each case, where the embodiment covers the compound according to the formula below:
Figure US08153814-20120410-C00009
it is excluded.
Some compounds of the formula (I), (Ia) or (Ib), according to any one of the preceding Embodiments, may exist in several different tautomeric forms. Tautomerism, or tautomeric isomerism, occurs where structural isomers are interconvertible via a low energy barrier. It can take the form of proton tautomerism, so called valence tautomerism in compounds which contain an aromatic moiety. In some compounds different tautomeric isomers may exist with respect to the position of certain protecting groups or prodrug moieties. Illustrative examples of such tautomeric forms are provided below but one of ordinary skill in the art would understand that many different tautomeric forms of such compounds may be possible and that the examples provided below are not exhaustive. Therefore, all references to compound of formula (I), (Ia) or (Ib), according to any one of the preceding Embodiments, should be taken to include tautomers thereof, whether illustrated or not. Furthermore, the illustrative examples provided below indicate situations where certain atoms are substituted with hydrogen. However, one of ordinary skill in the art would also understand that such tautomeric forms may also exist when such atoms are substituted by certain protecting groups or with prodrug substitutents. As such the disclosure herein is intended to also describe such alternative tautomeric forms. Furthermore, one of ordinary skill would understand that certain intermediates used in the preparation of compounds capable of tautomerising are themselves capable of existing in different tautomeric forms.
One such illustrative example is when the compound of formula (I), (Ia) or (Ib), according to any one of the preceding Embodiments, is a compound of the formula (Ic):
Figure US08153814-20120410-C00010
or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt or solvate thereof, wherein:
Y1, Y2, Y3, Y4, B, X and C are as defined in any one of the Embodiments above;
Y5 is NR4, oxygen or sulphur atom;
Y6 and Y7 are each independently selected from CR4 or nitrogen atoms;
provided that Y5, Y6 and Y7 cannot all be nitrogen; and
each R4 is independently selected from the group consisting of hydrogen, halo, cyano, (C1-C4)alkyl, halo(C1-C4)alkyl, (C1-C4)alkoxy, halo(C1-C4)alkoxy, (C3-C8)cycloalkyl, amino, (C1-C4)alkylamino and di(C1-C4)alkylamino;
tautomerism may occur to provide for example, a compound of the formula (Id).
Illustratively, when compounds of formula (Ic) comprise a nitrogen atom at Y6 a third tautomer, may also exist which is represented below by formula (Ie) below:
Figure US08153814-20120410-C00011
Furthermore, when the compound of formula (I), (Ia) or (Ib), according to any one of the preceding Embodiments, is a compound of the formula (If), as shown below, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt or solvate thereof, wherein:
Y1, Y2, Y3, Y4, B, X and C are as defined in any one of the Embodiments above;
Y8, Y9, Y10 and Y11 are selected from CR4, or a nitrogen atom in accordance with the definition of Z in Embodiment 1 above; and each R4 is independently selected from the group consisting of hydrogen, halo, cyano, (C1-C4)alkyl, halo(C1-C4)alkyl, (C1-C4)alkoxy, halo(C1-C4)alkoxy, (C3-C8)cycloalkyl, amino, (C1-C4)alkylamino and di(C1-C4)alkylamino; tautomerism may occur to provide for example, a compound of the formula (Ig). Additionally, two other tautomers are possible represented by formulae (Ih) and (Ii). If Y10 is a nitrogen atom then a compound of the formula (Ih) is possible and if Y8 is a nitrogen atom then a compound of formula (Ii) is possible.
Figure US08153814-20120410-C00012
All references to compounds of the invention, or to compounds of formulae (I), (Ia), and (Ib), should therefore be taken to include, where appropriate, the tautomeric isomers of the compounds, as exemplified by formulae (Ic), (Id), (Ie), (If), (Ig), (Ih), and (Ii) above.
Pharmaceutically acceptable salts of the compounds of formula (I) include the acid addition and base salts thereof.
Suitable acid addition salts are formed from acids which form non-toxic salts. Examples include the acetate, aspartate, benzoate, besylate, bicarbonate/carbonate, bisulphate/sulphate, borate, camsylate, citrate, edisylate, esylate, formate, fumarate, gluceptate, gluconate, glucuronate, hexafluorophosphate, hibenzate, hydrochloride/chloride, hydrobromide/bromide, hydroiodide/iodide, isothionate, lactate, malate, maleate, malonate, mesylate, methylsulphate, naphthylate, 2-napsylate, nicotinate, nitrate, orotate, oxalate, palmitate, pamoate, phosphate/hydrogen phosphate/dihydrogen phosphate, saccharate, stearate, succinate, tartrate, tosylate and trifluoroacetate salts.
Suitable base salts are formed from bases which form non-toxic salts. Examples include the aluminium, arginine, benzathine, calcium, choline, diethylamine, diolamine, glycine, lysine, magnesium, meglumine, olamine, potassium, sodium, tromethamine and zinc salts.
For a review on suitable salts, see “Handbook of Pharmaceutical Salts: Properties, Selection, and Use” by Stahl and Wermuth (Wiley-VCH, Weinheim, Germany, 2002).
A pharmaceutically acceptable salt of a compound of formula (I) may be readily prepared by mixing together solutions of the compound of formula (I) and the desired acid or base, as appropriate. The salt may precipitate from solution and be collected by filtration or may be recovered by evaporation of the solvent. The degree of ionisation in the salt may vary from completely ionised to almost non-ionised.
The compounds of the invention may exist in both unsolvated and solvated forms. The term ‘solvate’ is used herein to describe a molecular complex comprising the compound of the invention and one or more pharmaceutically acceptable solvent molecules, for example, ethanol. The term ‘hydrate’ is employed when said solvent is water.
Included within the scope of the invention are complexes such as clathrates, drug-host inclusion complexes wherein, in contrast to the aforementioned solvates, the drug and host are present in stoichiometric or non-stoichiometric amounts. Also included are complexes of the drug containing two or more organic and/or inorganic components which may be in stoichiometric or non-stoichiometric amounts. The resulting complexes may be ionised, partially ionised, or non-ionised. For a review of such complexes, see J Pharm Sci, 64 (8), 1269-1288 by Haleblian (August 1975).
Hereinafter all references to compounds of formula (I) include references to salts, solvates and complexes thereof and to solvates and complexes of salts thereof.
The compounds of the invention include compounds of formula (I) as hereinbefore defined, polymorphs, prodrugs (including tautomeric forms of such prodrugs), and isomers thereof (including optical, geometric and tautomeric isomers) as hereinafter defined and isotopically-labeled compounds of formula (I).
As stated, the invention includes all polymorphs of the compounds of formula (I) as hereinbefore defined.
Also within the scope of the invention are so-called ‘prodrugs’ of the compounds of formula (I). Thus certain derivatives of compounds of formula (I) which may have little or no pharmacological activity themselves can, when administered into or onto the body, be converted into compounds of formula (I) having the desired activity, for example, by hydrolytic cleavage. Such derivatives are referred to as ‘prodrugs’. Further information on the use of prodrugs may be found in ‘Pro-drugs as Novel Delivery Systems, Vol. 14, ACS Symposium Series (T Higuchi and W Stella) and ‘Bioreversible Carriers in Drug Design’, Pergamon Press, 1987 (ed. E B Roche, American Pharmaceutical Association).
Prodrugs in accordance with the invention can, for example, be produced by replacing appropriate functionalities present in the compounds of formula (I) with certain moieties known to those skilled in the art as ‘pro-moieties’ as described, for example, in “Design of Prodrugs” by H Bundgaard (Elsevier, 1985).
One skilled in the art would recognise that many different pro-drug forms of compounds of the present invention are possible. However, some illustrative examples of prodrugs in accordance with the invention include:
(i) where the compound of formula (I) contains a carboxylic acid functionality
(—COOH), an ester thereof, for example, replacement of the hydrogen with (C1-C8)alkyl;
(ii) where the compound of formula (I) contains an alcohol functionality (—OH), an ether thereof, for example, replacement of the hydrogen with (C1-C6)alkanoyloxymethyl; and
(iii) where the compound of formula (I) contains a primary or secondary amino functionality (—NH2 or —NHR where R≠H), an amide thereof, for example, replacement of one or both hydrogens with (C1-C10)alkanoyl.
A particularly useful prodrug of compounds of formula (I) which have a general formula (Ic), is formed by replacement of the hydrogen of the —NH-group of the sulphonamide moiety or the hydrogen of the —NH-group of the 1,3-thiazolyl ring of such compounds is replaced by a prodrug moiety (Prodrug) which is either —CH2OP(═O)(OR′)2 or —CH2OC(═O)R′ wherein R′ is selected from the group consisting of hydrogen or (C1-C6)alkyl, for example —C(CH3)3. Such compounds are prepared by reaction of the —NH-group of the sulphonamide moiety or the —NH-group of the 1,3-thiazolyl ring of the compounds of formula (Ic) with either an alkyl linked phosphate, such as an alkyl linked phosphoric acid or an alkyl linked phosphate ester, or with an alkyl linked carboxylic acid group, such as an alkyl linked carboxylic acid or an alkyl linked carboxylic ester. Such prodrug compounds can generally be schematically represented as shown below by formula (Ic′) or its tautomeric form (Id′):
Figure US08153814-20120410-C00013
wherein C, X, B, Y1, Y2, Y3, Y4, Y5, Y6, Y7 are as defined above for compounds of formula (Ic) and Prodrug is a prodrug moiety as defined above. Phosphate prodrugs have been generally described in, for example, Rautio, J.; Kumpulainen, H.; Heimbach, T.; Oliyai, R.; Oh, D.; Järvinen, T.; Savolainen, J. Nat. Rev. Drug Discovery 2008, 7, 255. Carboxylic acid and related ester prodrugs have been generally described in Calheiros, T.; Iley, J.; Lopes, F.; Moreira, R. Bioorg. Med. Chem. Lett. 1995, 5, 937 and in Lopes, F.; Moreira, R.; Iley, J. Bioorg. Med. Chem. 2000, 8, 707.
When forming such prodrugs it is preferred that the hydrogen of the —NH-group of the sulphonamide moiety or the hydrogen of the —NH-group of the 1,3-thiazolyl ring of such compounds is replaced by —CH2OP(═O)(OR′)2, in particular wherein R′ is hydrogen to give —CH2OP(═O)(OH)2, or where R′ is —C(CH3)3 to give —CH2OP(═O)(OC(CH3)3)2.
As such, in yet another embodiment, Embodiment 10, the invention provides for a prodrug of compounds of formula (Ic′) wherein the hydrogen of the —NH-group of the sulphonamide moiety or the hydrogen of the —NH-group of the 1,3-thiazolyl ring of such compounds is replaced by either —CH2OP(═O)(OR′)2 or —CH2OC(═O)R′ wherein R′ is selected from the group consisting of hydrogen or (C1-C6)alkyl, for example —C(CH3)3, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt, solvate or tautomer thereof.
Further examples of replacement groups in accordance with the foregoing examples and examples of other prodrug types may be found in the aforementioned references.
As used herein, unless otherwise specified, references to formula (I) also encompass references to prodrugs, and salts, solvates or tautomers thereof, such as those of Embodiment (10).
Finally, certain compounds of formula (I) may themselves act as prodrugs of other compounds of formula (I).
Compounds of formula (I) containing one or more asymmetric carbon atoms can exist as two or more stereoisomers. Where a compound of formula (I) contains an alkenyl or alkenylene group, geometric cis/trans (or Z/E) isomers are possible. Where the compound contains, for example, a keto or oxime group or an aromatic moiety, tautomeric isomerism (‘tautomerism’) can occur. It follows that a single compound may exhibit more than one type of isomerism.
Included within the scope of the present invention are all stereoisomers, geometric isomers and tautomeric forms of the compounds of formula (I), including compounds exhibiting more than one type of isomerism, and mixtures of one or more thereof. Also included are acid addition or base salts wherein the counterion is optically active, for example, D-lactate or L-lysine, or racemic, for example, DL-tartrate or DL-arginine.
Cis/trans isomers may be separated by conventional techniques well known to those skilled in the art, for example, chromatography and fractional crystallisation.
Conventional techniques for the preparation/isolation of individual enantiomers include chiral synthesis from a suitable optically pure precursor or resolution of the racemate (or the racemate of a salt or derivative) using, for example, chiral high pressure liquid chromatography (HPLC)
Alternatively, the racemate (or a racemic precursor) may be reacted with a suitable optically active compound, for example, an alcohol, or, in the case where the compound of formula (I) contains an acidic or basic moiety, an acid or base such as tartaric acid or 1-phenylethylamine. The resulting diastereomeric mixture may be separated by chromatography and/or fractional crystallization and one or both of the diastereoisomers converted to the corresponding pure enantiomer(s) by means well known to a skilled person.
Chiral compounds of the invention (and chiral precursors thereof) may be obtained in enantiomerically-enriched form using chromatography, typically HPLC, on an asymmetric resin with a mobile phase consisting of a hydrocarbon, typically heptane or hexane, containing from 0 to 50% isopropanol, typically from 2 to 20%, and from 0 to 5% of an alkylamine, typically 0.1% diethylamine. Concentration of the eluate affords the enriched mixture.
Stereoisomeric conglomerates may be separated by conventional techniques known to those skilled in the art—see, for example, “Stereochemistry of Organic Compounds” by E L Eliel (Wiley, New York, 1994).
The present invention includes all pharmaceutically acceptable isotopically-labelled compounds of formula (I) wherein one or more atoms are replaced by atoms having the same atomic number, but an atomic mass or mass number different from the atomic mass or mass number usually found in nature.
Examples of isotopes suitable for inclusion in the compounds of the invention include isotopes of hydrogen, such as 2H and 3H, carbon, such as 11C, 13C and 14C, chlorine, such as 36Cl, fluorine, such as 18F, iodine, such as 123I and 125I, nitrogen, such as 13N and 15N, oxygen, such as 15O, 17O and 18O, phosphorus, such as 32P, and sulphur, such as 35S.
Certain isotopically-labelled compounds of formula (I), for example, those incorporating a radioactive isotope, are useful in drug and/or substrate tissue distribution studies. The radioactive isotopes tritium, i.e. 3H, and carbon-14, i.e. 14C, and 125I are particularly useful for this purpose in view of their ease of incorporation and ready means of detection.
Substitution with heavier isotopes such as deuterium, i.e. 2H, may afford certain therapeutic advantages resulting from greater metabolic stability, for example, increased in vivo half-life or reduced dosage requirements, and hence may be preferred in some circumstances.
Substitution with positron emitting isotopes, such as 11C, 18F, 15O and 13N, can be useful in Positron Emission Topography (PET) studies for examining substrate receptor occupancy.
Isotopically-labeled compounds of formula (I) can generally be prepared by conventional techniques known to those skilled in the art or by processes analogous to those described in the accompanying Examples and Preparations using an appropriate isotopically-labeled reagents in place of the non-labeled reagent previously employed.
Pharmaceutically acceptable solvates in accordance with the invention include those wherein the solvent of crystallization may be isotopically substituted, e.g. D2O, d6-acetone, d6-DMSO.
The compounds of formula (I), being Nav1.7 channel modulators, are potentially useful in the treatment of a range of disorders. The treatment of pain, particularly neuropathic, nociceptive and inflammatory pain, is a preferred use.
Physiological pain is an important protective mechanism designed to warn of danger from potentially injurious stimuli from the external environment. The system operates through a specific set of primary sensory neurones and is activated by noxious stimuli via peripheral transducing mechanisms (see Millan, 1999, Prog. Neurobiol., 57, 1-164 for a review). These sensory fibres are known as nociceptors and are characteristically small diameter axons with slow conduction velocities. Nociceptors encode the intensity, duration and quality of noxious stimulus and by virtue of their topographically organised projection to the spinal cord, the location of the stimulus. The nociceptors are found on nociceptive nerve fibres of which there are two main types, A-delta fibres (myelinated) and C fibres (non-myelinated). The activity generated by nociceptor input is transferred, after complex processing in the dorsal horn, either directly, or via brain stem relay nuclei, to the ventrobasal thalamus and then on to the cortex, where the sensation of pain is generated.
Pain may generally be classified as acute or chronic. Acute pain begins suddenly and is short-lived (usually twelve weeks or less). It is usually associated with a specific cause such as a specific injury and is often sharp and severe. It is the kind of pain that can occur after specific injuries resulting from surgery, dental work, a strain or a sprain. Acute pain does not generally result in any persistent psychological response. In contrast, chronic pain is long-term pain, typically persisting for more than three months and leading to significant psychological and emotional problems. Common examples of chronic pain are neuropathic pain (e.g. painful diabetic neuropathy, postherpetic neuralgia), carpal tunnel syndrome, back pain, headache, cancer pain, arthritic pain and chronic post-surgical pain.
When a substantial injury occurs to body tissue, via disease or trauma, the characteristics of nociceptor activation are altered and there is sensitisation in the periphery, locally around the injury and centrally where the nociceptors terminate. These effects lead to a hightened sensation of pain. In acute pain these mechanisms can be useful, in promoting protective behaviours which may better enable repair processes to take place. The normal expectation would be that sensitivity returns to normal once the injury has healed. However, in many chronic pain states, the hypersensitivity far outlasts the healing process and is often due to nervous system injury. This injury often leads to abnormalities in sensory nerve fibres associated with maladaptation and aberrant activity (Woolf & Salter, 2000, Science, 288, 1765-1768).
Clinical pain is present when discomfort and abnormal sensitivity feature among the patient's symptoms. Patients tend to be quite heterogeneous and may present with various pain symptoms. Such symptoms include: 1) spontaneous pain which may be dull, burning, or stabbing; 2) exaggerated pain responses to noxious stimuli (hyperalgesia); and 3) pain produced by normally innocuous stimuli (allodynia—Meyer et al., 1994, Textbook of Pain, 13-44). Although patients suffering from various forms of acute and chronic pain may have similar symptoms, the underlying mechanisms may be different and may, therefore, require different treatment strategies. Pain can also therefore be divided into a number of different subtypes according to differing pathophysiology, including nociceptive, inflammatory and neuropathic pain.
Nociceptive pain is induced by tissue injury or by intense stimuli with the potential to cause injury. Pain afferents are activated by transduction of stimuli by nociceptors at the site of injury and activate neurons in the spinal cord at the level of their termination. This is then relayed up the spinal tracts to the brain where pain is perceived (Meyer et al., 1994, Textbook of Pain, 13-44). The activation of nociceptors activates two types of afferent nerve fibres. Myelinated A-delta fibres transmit rapidly and are responsible for sharp and stabbing pain sensations, whilst unmyelinated C fibres transmit at a slower rate and convey a dull or aching pain. Moderate to severe acute nociceptive pain is a prominent feature of pain from central nervous system trauma, strains/sprains, burns, myocardial infarction and acute pancreatitis, post-operative pain (pain following any type of surgical procedure), posttraumatic pain, renal colic, cancer pain and back pain. Cancer pain may be chronic pain such as tumour related pain (e.g. bone pain, headache, facial pain or visceral pain) or pain associated with cancer therapy (e.g. postchemotherapy syndrome, chronic postsurgical pain syndrome or post radiation syndrome). Cancer pain may also occur in response to chemotherapy, immunotherapy, hormonal therapy or radiotherapy. Back pain may be due to herniated or ruptured intervertabral discs or abnormalities of the lumber facet joints, sacroiliac joints, paraspinal muscles or the posterior longitudinal ligament. Back pain may resolve naturally but in some patients, where it lasts over 12 weeks, it becomes a chronic condition which can be particularly debilitating.
Neuropathic pain is currently defined as pain initiated or caused by a primary lesion or dysfunction in the nervous system. Nerve damage can be caused by trauma and disease and thus the term ‘neuropathic pain’ encompasses many disorders with diverse aetiologies. These include, but are not limited to, peripheral neuropathy, diabetic neuropathy, post herpetic neuralgia, trigeminal neuralgia, back pain, cancer neuropathy, HIV neuropathy, phantom limb pain, carpal tunnel syndrome, central post-stroke pain and pain associated with chronic alcoholism, hypothyroidism, uremia, multiple sclerosis, spinal cord injury, Parkinson's disease, epilepsy and vitamin deficiency. Neuropathic pain is pathological as it has no protective role. It is often present well after the original cause has dissipated, commonly lasting for years, significantly decreasing a patient's quality of life (Woolf and Mannion, 1999, Lancet, 353, 1959-1964). The symptoms of neuropathic pain are difficult to treat, as they are often heterogeneous even between patients with the same disease (Woolf & Decosterd, 1999, Pain Supp., 6, S141-S147; Woolf and Mannion, 1999, Lancet, 353, 1959-1964). They include spontaneous pain, which can be continuous, and paroxysmal or abnormal evoked pain, such as hyperalgesia (increased sensitivity to a noxious stimulus) and allodynia (sensitivity to a normally innocuous stimulus).
The inflammatory process is a complex series of biochemical and cellular events, activated in response to tissue injury or the presence of foreign substances, which results in swelling and pain (Levine and Taiwo, 1994, Textbook of Pain, 45-56). Arthritic pain is the most common inflammatory pain. Rheumatoid disease is one of the commonest chronic inflammatory conditions in developed countries and rheumatoid arthritis is a common cause of disability. The exact aetiology of rheumatoid arthritis is unknown, but current hypotheses suggest that both genetic and microbiological factors may be important (Grennan & Jayson, 1994, Textbook of Pain, 397-407). It has been estimated that almost 16 million Americans have symptomatic osteoarthritis (OA) or degenerative joint disease, most of whom are over 60 years of age, and this is expected to increase to 40 million as the age of the population increases, making this a public health problem of enormous magnitude (Houge & Mersfelder, 2002, Ann Pharmacother., 36, 679-686; McCarthy et al., 1994, Textbook of Pain, 387-395). Most patients with osteoarthritis seek medical attention because of the associated pain. Arthritis has a significant impact on psychosocial and physical function and is known to be the leading cause of disability in later life. Ankylosing spondylitis is also a rheumatic disease that causes arthritis of the spine and sacroiliac joints. It varies from intermittent episodes of back pain that occur throughout life to a severe chronic disease that attacks the spine, peripheral joints and other body organs.
Another type of inflammatory pain is visceral pain which includes pain associated with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). Visceral pain is pain associated with the viscera, which encompass the organs of the abdominal cavity. These organs include the sex organs, spleen and part of the digestive system. Pain associated with the viscera can be divided into digestive visceral pain and non-digestive visceral pain. Commonly encountered gastrointestinal (GI) disorders that cause pain include functional bowel disorder (FBD) and inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). These GI disorders include a wide range of disease states that are currently only moderately controlled, including, in respect of FBD, gastro-esophageal reflux, dyspepsia, irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) and functional abdominal pain syndrome (FAPS), and, in respect of IBD, Crohn's disease, ileitis and ulcerative colitis, all of which regularly produce visceral pain. Other types of visceral pain include the pain associated with dysmenorrhea, cystitis and pancreatitis and pelvic pain.
It should be noted that some types of pain have multiple aetiologies and thus can be classified in more than one area, e.g. back pain and cancer pain have both nociceptive and neuropathic components.
Other types of pain include:
    • pain resulting from musculo-skeletal disorders, including myalgia, fibromyalgia, spondylitis, sero-negative (non-rheumatoid) arthropathies, non-articular rheumatism, dystrophinopathy, glycogenolysis, polymyositis and pyomyositis;
    • heart and vascular pain, including pain caused by angina, myocardical infarction, mitral stenosis, pericarditis, Raynaud's phenomenon, scleredoma and skeletal muscle ischemia;
    • head pain, such as migraine (including migraine with aura and migraine without aura), cluster headache, tension-type headache mixed headache and headache associated with vascular disorders;
    • erythermalgia; and
    • orofacial pain, including dental pain, otic pain, burning mouth syndrome and temporomandibular myofascial pain.
Compounds of the invention intended for pharmaceutical use may be administered as crystalline or amorphous products. They may be obtained, for example, as solid plugs, powders, or films by methods such as precipitation, crystallization, freeze drying, spray drying, or evaporative drying. Microwave or radio frequency drying may be used for this purpose.
They may be administered alone or in combination with one or more other compounds of the invention or in combination with one or more other drugs (or as any combination thereof). Generally, they will be administered as a formulation in association with one or more pharmaceutically acceptable excipients. The term “excipient” is used herein to describe any ingredient other than the compound(s) of the invention. The choice of excipient will to a large extent depend on factors such as the particular mode of administration, the effect of the excipient on solubility and stability, and the nature of the dosage form.
Pharmaceutical compositions suitable for the delivery of compounds of the present invention and methods for their preparation will be readily apparent to those skilled in the art. Such compositions and methods for their preparation may be found, for example, in ‘Remington's Pharmaceutical Sciences’, 19th Edition (Mack Publishing Company, 1995).
Oral Administration
The compounds of the invention may be administered orally. Oral administration may involve swallowing, so that the compound enters the gastrointestinal tract, or buccal or sublingual administration may be employed by which the compound enters the blood stream directly from the mouth.
Formulations suitable for oral administration include solid formulations such as tablets, capsules containing particulates, liquids, or powders, lozenges (including liquid-filled), chews, multi- and nano-particulates, gels, solid solution, liposome, films (including muco-adhesive), ovules, sprays and liquid formulations.
Liquid formulations include suspensions, solutions, syrups and elixirs. Such formulations may be employed as fillers in soft or hard capsules and typically comprise a carrier, for example, water, ethanol, polyethylene glycol, propylene glycol, methylcellulose, or a suitable oil, and one or more emulsifying agents and/or suspending agents. Liquid formulations may also be prepared by the reconstitution of a solid, for example, from a sachet.
The compounds of the invention may also be used in fast-dissolving, fast-disintegrating dosage forms such as those described in Expert Opinion in Therapeutic Patents, 11 (6), 981-986 by Liang and Chen (2001).
For tablet dosage forms, depending on dose, the drug may make up from 1 wt % to 80 wt % of the dosage form, more typically from 5 wt % to 60 wt % of the dosage form. In addition to the drug, tablets generally contain a disintegrant. Examples of disintegrants include sodium starch glycolate, sodium carboxymethyl cellulose, calcium carboxymethyl cellulose, croscarmellose sodium, crospovidone, polyvinylpyrrolidone, methyl cellulose, microcrystalline cellulose, lower alkyl-substituted hydroxypropyl cellulose, starch, pregelatinised starch and sodium alginate. Generally, the disintegrant will comprise from 1 wt % to 25 wt %, preferably from 5 wt % to 20 wt % of the dosage form.
Binders are generally used to impart cohesive qualities to a tablet formulation. Suitable binders include microcrystalline cellulose, gelatin, sugars, polyethylene glycol, natural and synthetic gums, polyvinylpyrrolidone, pregelatinised starch, hydroxypropyl cellulose and hydroxypropyl methylcellulose. Tablets may also contain diluents, such as lactose (monohydrate, spray-dried monohydrate, anhydrous and the like), mannitol, xylitol, dextrose, sucrose, sorbitol, microcrystalline cellulose, starch and dibasic calcium phosphate dihydrate.
Tablets may also optionally comprise surface active agents, such as sodium lauryl sulfate and polysorbate 80, and glidants such as silicon dioxide and talc. When present, surface active agents may comprise from 0.2 wt % to 5 wt % of the tablet, and glidants may comprise from 0.2 wt % to 1 wt % of the tablet.
Tablets also generally contain lubricants such as magnesium stearate, calcium stearate, zinc stearate, sodium stearyl fumarate, and mixtures of magnesium stearate with sodium lauryl sulphate. Lubricants generally comprise from 0.25 wt % to 10 wt %, preferably from 0.5 wt % to 3 wt % of the tablet.
Other possible ingredients include anti-oxidants, colourants, flavouring agents, preservatives and taste-masking agents.
Exemplary tablets contain up to about 80% drug, from about 10 wt % to about 90 wt % binder, from about 0 wt % to about 85 wt % diluent, from about 2 wt % to about 10 wt % disintegrant, and from about 0.25 wt % to about 10 wt % lubricant.
Tablet blends may be compressed directly or by roller to form tablets. Tablet blends or portions of blends may alternatively be wet-, dry-, or melt-granulated, melt congealed, or extruded before tabletting. The final formulation may comprise one or more layers and may be coated or uncoated; it may even be encapsulated.
The formulation of tablets is discussed in “Pharmaceutical Dosage Forms: Tablets, Vol. 1”, by H. Lieberman and L. Lachman, Marcel Dekker, N.Y., N.Y., 1980 (ISBN 0-8247-6918-X).
Solid formulations for oral administration may be formulated to be immediate and/or modified release. Modified release formulations include delayed-, sustained-, pulsed-, controlled-, targeted and programmed release.
Suitable modified release formulations for the purposes of the invention are described in U.S. Pat. No. 6,106,864. Details of other suitable release technologies such as high energy dispersions and osmotic and coated particles are to be found in Verma et al, Pharmaceutical Technology On-line, 25(2), 1-14 (2001). The use of chewing gum to achieve controlled release is described in WO 00/35298.
Parental Administration
The compounds of the invention may also be administered directly into the blood stream, into muscle, or into an internal organ. Suitable means for parenteral administration include intravenous, intraarterial, intraperitoneal, intrathecal, intraventricular, intraurethral, intrasternal, intracranial, intramuscular and subcutaneous. Suitable devices for parenteral administration include needle (including microneedle) injectors, needle-free injectors and infusion techniques.
Parenteral formulations are typically aqueous solutions which may contain excipients such as salts, carbohydrates and buffering agents (preferably to a pH of from 3 to 9), but, for some applications, they may be more suitably formulated as a sterile non-aqueous solution or as a dried form to be used in conjunction with a suitable vehicle such as sterile, pyrogen-free water.
The preparation of parenteral formulations under sterile conditions, for example, by lyophilisation, may readily be accomplished using standard pharmaceutical techniques well known to those skilled in the art.
The solubility of compounds of formula (I) used in the preparation of parenteral solutions may be increased by the use of appropriate formulation techniques, such as the incorporation of solubility-enhancing agents.
Formulations for parenteral administration may be formulated to be immediate and/or modified release. Modified release formulations include delayed-, sustained-, pulsed-, controlled-, targeted and programmed release. Thus compounds of the invention may be formulated as a solid, semi-solid, or thixotropic liquid for administration as an implanted depot providing modified release of the active compound. Examples of such formulations include drug-coated stents and PGLA microspheres.
Topical Administration
The compounds of the invention may also be administered topically to the skin or mucosa, that is, dermally or transdermally. Typical formulations for this purpose include gels, hydrogels, lotions, solutions, creams, ointments, dusting powders, dressings, foams, films, skin patches, wafers, implants, sponges, fibres, bandages and microemulsions. Liposomes may also be used. Typical carriers include alcohol, water, mineral oil, liquid petrolatum, white petrolatum, glycerin, polyethylene glycol and propylene glycol. Penetration enhancers may be incorporated—see, for example, J Pharm Sci, 88 (10), 955-958 by Finnin and Morgan (October 1999).
Other means of topical administration include delivery by electroporation, iontophoresis, phonophoresis, sonophoresis and microneedle or needle-free (e.g. Powderject™, Bioject™, etc.) injection.
Formulations for topical administration may be formulated to be immediate and/or modified release. Modified release formulations include delayed-, sustained-, pulsed-, controlled-, targeted and programmed release.
Inhaled/Intranasal Administration
The compounds of the invention can also be administered intranasally or by inhalation, typically in the form of a dry powder (either alone, as a mixture, for example, in a dry blend with lactose, or as a mixed component particle, for example, mixed with phospholipids, such as phosphatidylcholine) from a dry powder inhaler or as an aerosol spray from a pressurised container, pump, spray, atomiser (preferably an atomiser using electrohydrodynamics to produce a fine mist), or nebuliser, with or without the use of a suitable propellant, such as 1,1,1,2-tetrafluoroethane or 1,1,1,2,3,3,3-heptafluoropropane. For intranasal use, the powder may comprise a bioadhesive agent, for example, chitosan or cyclodextrin.
The pressurised container, pump, spray, atomizer, or nebuliser contains a solution or suspension of the compound(s) of the invention comprising, for example, ethanol, aqueous ethanol, or a suitable alternative agent for dispersing, solubilising, or extending release of the active, a propellant(s) as solvent and an optional surfactant, such as sorbitan trioleate, oleic acid, or an oligolactic acid.
Prior to use in a dry powder or suspension formulation, the drug product is micronised to a size suitable for delivery by inhalation (typically less than 5 microns). This may be achieved by any appropriate comminuting method, such as spiral jet milling, fluid bed jet milling, supercritical fluid processing to form nanoparticles, high pressure homogenisation, or spray drying.
Capsules (made, for example, from gelatin or HPMC), blisters and cartridges for use in an inhaler or insufflator may be formulated to contain a powder mix of the compound of the invention, a suitable powder base such as lactose or starch and a performance modifier such as l-leucine, mannitol, or magnesium stearate. The lactose may be anhydrous or in the form of the monohydrate, preferably the latter. Other suitable excipients include dextran, glucose, maltose, sorbitol, xylitol, fructose, sucrose and trehalose.
A suitable solution formulation for use in an atomiser using electrohydrodynamics to produce a fine mist may contain from 1 μg to 20 mg of the compound of the invention per actuation and the actuation volume may vary from 1 μl to 100 μl. A typical formulation may comprise a compound of formula (I), propylene glycol, sterile water, ethanol and sodium chloride. Alternative solvents which may be used instead of propylene glycol include glycerol and polyethylene glycol.
Suitable flavours, such as menthol and levomenthol, or sweeteners, such as saccharin or saccharin sodium, may be added to those formulations of the invention intended for inhaled/intranasal administration.
Formulations for inhaled/intranasal administration may be formulated to be immediate and/or modified release using, for example, poly(DL-lactic-coglycolic acid (PGLA). Modified release formulations include delayed-, sustained-, pulsed-, controlled-, targeted and programmed release.
In the case of dry powder inhalers and aerosols, the dosage unit is determined by means of a valve which delivers a metered amount. Units in accordance with the invention are typically arranged to administer a metered dose or “puff” containing the compound of formula (I). The overall daily dose may be administered in a single dose or, more usually, as divided doses throughout the day.
Rectal/Intravaginal Administration
The compounds of the invention may be administered rectally or vaginally, for example, in the form of a suppository, pessary, or enema. Cocoa butter is a traditional suppository base, but various alternatives may be used as appropriate.
Formulations for rectal/vaginal administration may be formulated to be immediate and/or modified release. Modified release formulations include delayed-, sustained-, pulsed-, controlled-, targeted and programmed release.
Ocular/Aural Administration
The compounds of the invention may also be administered directly to the eye or ear, typically in the form of drops of a micronised suspension or solution in isotonic, pH-adjusted, sterile saline. Other formulations suitable for ocular and aural administration include ointments, biodegradable (e.g. absorbable gel sponges, collagen) and non-biodegradable (e.g. silicone) implants, wafers, lenses and particulate or vesicular systems, such as niosomes or liposomes. A polymer such as crossed-linked polyacrylic acid, polyvinylalcohol, hyaluronic acid, a cellulosic polymer, for example, hydroxypropylmethylcellulose, hydroxyethylcellulose, or methyl cellulose, or a heteropolysaccharide polymer, for example, gelan gum, may be incorporated together with a preservative, such as benzalkonium chloride. Such formulations may also be delivered by iontophoresis.
Formulations for ocular/aural administration may be formulated to be immediate and/or modified release. Modified release formulations include delayed-, sustained-, pulsed-, controlled-, targeted, or programmed release.
Other Technologies
The compounds of the invention may be combined with soluble macromolecular entities, such as cyclodextrin and suitable derivatives thereof or polyethylene glycol-containing polymers, in order to improve their solubility, dissolution rate, taste-masking, bioavailability and/or stability for use in any of the aforementioned modes of administration.
Drug-cyclodextrin complexes, for example, are found to be generally useful for most dosage forms and administration routes. Both inclusion and non-inclusion complexes may be used. As an alternative to direct complexation with the drug, the cyclodextrin may be used as an auxiliary additive, i.e. as a carrier, diluent, or solubiliser. Most commonly used for these purposes are alpha-, beta- and gamma-cyclodextrins, examples of which may be found in International Patent Applications Nos. WO 91/11172, WO 94/02518 and WO 98/55148.
Kit-of-Parts
Inasmuch as it may desirable to administer a combination of active compounds, for example, for the purpose of treating a particular disease or condition, it is within the scope of the present invention that two or more pharmaceutical compositions, at least one of which contains a compound in accordance with the invention, may conveniently be combined in the form of a kit suitable for coadministration of the compositions.
Thus the kit of the invention comprises two or more separate pharmaceutical compositions, at least one of which contains a compound of formula (I) in accordance with the invention, and means for separately retaining said compositions, such as a container, divided bottle, or divided foil packet. An example of such a kit is the familiar blister pack used for the packaging of tablets, capsules and the like.
The kit of the invention is particularly suitable for administering different dosage forms, for example, oral and parenteral, for administering the separate compositions at different dosage intervals, or for titrating the separate compositions against one another. To assist compliance, the kit typically comprises directions for administration and may be provided with a so-called memory aid.
Dosage
For administration to human patients, the total daily dose of the compounds of the invention depends, of course, on the mode of administration. For example, oral administration may require a higher total daily dose, than an intravenous dose. The total daily dose may be administered in single or divided doses.
For the avoidance of doubt, references herein to “treatment” include references to curative, palliative and prophylactic treatment.

As an example when C is furan, a Diels Alder with a reaction with an azadicarboxylate ester in the presence of a Lewis acid catalyst such as zinc triflate yields a bicyclic adduct. Ester hydrolysis with for example an acid (such as acetic acid) or a base (such as sodium hydroxide) results in decarboxylation and dehydration to yield a pyridazine.
According to a sixteenth process:

compounds of formula (XXXII), which are commercially available or known in the literature, are typically treated with chlorosulfonic acid in chloroform at 0° C. with warming to ambient temperature to provide compounds of formula (VI).
Referring to the general methods above, it will be readily understood to the skilled person that where protecting groups are present, these will be generally interchangeable with other protecting groups of a similar nature, e.g. where a sulfonamide is described as being protected with a tert-butyl or dimethoxybenzyl group, this may be readily interchanged with any suitable sulfonamide protecting group. Suitable protecting groups are described in ‘Protective Groups in Organic Synthesis’ by T. Greene and P. Wuts (3rd edition, 1999, John Wiley and Sons).
The present invention also relates to novel intermediate compounds as defined above, all salts, solvates and complexes thereof and all solvates and complexes of salts thereof as defined hereinbefore for compounds of formula (I). The invention includes all polymorphs of the aforementioned species and crystal habits thereof.
EXAMPLES & PREPARATIONS
The following experimental details illustrate specifically how certain compounds of formula (I) may be prepared. All examples, unless indicated as a reference example, are compounds of formula (I). Preparations are intermediates useful in the synthesis of compounds of formula (I).
1H Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectra were in all cases consistent with the proposed structures. Characteristic chemical shifts (δ) are given in parts-per-million downfield from tetramethylsilane using conventional abbreviations for designation of major peaks: e.g. s, singlet; d, doublet; t, triplet; q, quartet; m, multiplet; br, broad.
The mass spectra (m/z) were recorded using either electrospray ionisation (ESI) or atmospheric pressure chemical ionisation (APCI). When relevant, and unless stated otherwise, the m/z data provided are for isotopes 19F, 35Cl and 79Br.
The following abbreviations have been used for common solvents: CDCl3, deuterochloroform; d5-DMSO, deuterodimethylsulphoxide; CD3OD, deuteromethanol; THF, tetrahydrofuran. ‘Ammonia’ refers to a concentrated solution of ammonia in water possessing a specific gravity of 0.88.
Where thin layer chromatography (TLC) has been used it refers to silica gel TLC using silica gel 60 F254 plates, Rf is the distance travelled by a compound divided by the distance travelled by the solvent front on a TLC plate.
Where compounds are purified by HPLC the following methods are used:
Preparative Reverse Phase HPLC Methods:
a) Phenomenex 250×30 mm 15 micron C18 column. 40 mL/minutes. Gradient 85% A to 100% B over 25 minutes. Solvent A: 7800 water/200 acetonitrile/8 trifluoroacetic acid. Solvent B: 7200 acetonitrile/800 water/8 trifluoroacetic acid, 254 nM UV detection.
b) Phenomenex 100×21.2 mm 10 micron C18 column. 20 mL/minutes. Gradient 85% A to 100% B over 25 minutes. Solvent A: 7800 water/200 acetonitrile/8 trifluoroacetic acid. Solvent B: 7200 acetonitrile/800 water/8 trifluoroacetic acid, 254 nM UV detection.
Certain compounds of the Examples and Preparations were purified using Automated Preparative High Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC). Reversed-phase HPLC conditions were on FractionLynx systems. Samples were submitted dissolved in 1mL of DMSO. Depending on the nature of the compounds and the results of a pre-analysis, the purification was performed under either acidic conditions or basic conditions at ambient temperature. Acidic runs were carried out on a Sunfire Prep C18 OBD column (19×50 mm, 5 μm), basic runs were carried out on a Xterra Prep MS C18 (19×50 mm, 5 μm), both from Waters. A flow rate of 18 mL/minutes was used with mobile phase A: water+0.1% modifier (v/v) and B: acetonitrile+0.1% modifier (v/v). For acidic runs the modifier was formic acid, for basic run the modifier was diethylamine. A Waters 2525 binary LC pump supplied a mobile phase with a composition of 5% B for 1 minute then ran from 5% to 98% B over 6 minutes followed by a 2 minutes hold at 98% B.
Detection was achieved using a Waters 2487 dual wavelength absorbance detector set at 225 nm followed in series by a Polymer Labs PL-ELS 2100 detector and a Waters ZQ 2000 4 way MUX mass spectrometer in parallel. The PL 2100 ELSD was set at 30° C. with 1.6 L/minutes supply of Nitrogen. The Waters ZQ MS was tuned with the following parameters:
ES+ Cone voltage: 30 v Capillary: 3.20 kv
ES− Cone voltage: −30 v Capillary: −3.00 kv
Desolvation gas: 600 L/hour
Source Temp: 120° C.
Scan range 150-900 Da
The fraction collection was triggered by both MS and ELSD.
Quality control analysis was performed using a LCMS method orthogonal to the preparative method. Acidic runs were carried out on a Sunfire C18 (4.6×50 mm, 5 μm), basic runs were carried out on a Xterra C18 (4.6×50 mm, 5 μm), both from Waters. A flow rate of 1.5 mL/minutes was used with mobile phase A: water+0.1% modifier (v/v) and B: acetonitrile+0.1% modifier (v/v). For acidic runs the modifier was formic acid, for basic run the modifier was diethylamine. A Waters 1525 binary LC pump ran a gradient elution from 5% to 95% B over 3 minutes followed by a 1 minute hold at 95% B. Detection was achieved using a Waters MUX UV 2488 detector set at 225 nm followed in series by a Polymer Labs PL-ELS 2100 detector and a Waters ZQ 2000 4 way MUX mass spectrometer in parallel. The PL 2100 ELSD was set at 30° C. with 1.6 L/minutes supply of Nitrogen. The Waters ZQ MS was tuned with the following parameters:
ES+ Cone voltage: 25 v Capillary: 3.30 kv

Example 878 from above can be prepared as follows.
2-pyridazin-4-yl-4-(trifluoromethoxy)phenol (Preparation 888, 1.03 g, 4.02 mmol) was taken up in dimethyl sulfoxide (50 mL, 600 mmol) and potassium carbonate (1.03 g, 7.45 mmol) added, followed by 3-cyano-N-(2,4-dimethoxybenzyl)-4-fluoro-N-(1,2,4-thiadiazol-5-yl)benzenesulfonamide (Preparation 68, 1.74 g, 4.00 mmol). The reaction mixture was stirred at 23° C. for 18 hours. The reaction mixture was diluted with water and extracted two times with ethyl ether. The combined organic phase was washed successively with water and brine. The organic phase was dried over magnesium sulfate, then treated with activated carbon and filtered through a pad of diatomaceous earth. The solvent was removed in vacuo. The residue was dissolved in methylene chloride (100 mL, 2000 mmol) and trifluoroacetic acid (2.0 mL, 26 mmol) was added. The solution was stirred for 2 hours then concentrated in vacuo. The residue was purified by column chromatography (40 g silica gel column, 0 to 10% methanol in dichloromethane gradient elution). The product fractions were combined and concentrated in vacuo to a residue. The residue was triturated with ethyl ether and the solid collected by filtration. Vacuum drying gave 1.35 g of product as a white solid.

A solution of lithium hexamethyldisilazide (1.0 M in tetrahydrofuran, 272 uL, 0.272 mmol) was added to a solution of tert-butyl 4-(4-(5-chloro-2-hydroxyphenyl)pyridin-2-yl)piperazine-1-carboxylate (Preparation 853, 100.0 mg, 0.2180 mmol) in N,N-dimethylformamide (3 mL, 40 mmol). After stirring 5 minutes, tert-butyl [(2,4,5-trifluorophenyl)sulfonyl]1,3-thiazol-4-ylcarbamate (Preparation 854, 72 mg, 0.18 mmol) was added as a solid. The reaction mixture was stirred at ambient temperature. After 2 hours, the reaction mixture was diluted with water, neutralized with saturated aqueous ammonium chloride, and extracted with ethyl acetate (3×). The combined organic layers were washed with brine, dried over sodium sulfate, filtered, and concentrated onto diatomaceous earth. The residue was purified by automated flash chromatography (24 g SiO2, hexanes to ethyl acetate) to afford the intermediate.

After stirring for 5 hours, more boron tribromide (2.0 mL, 0.021 mol) was added. After stirring for 2 more hours, the reaction mixture was added to ice water and stirred for 20 minutes. The resulting white precipitate was filtered and washed with water to give a white solid that contained product. The layers of the filtrate were separated and extracted with dichloromethane (2×). The combined organics were dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate, filtered, and concentrated to give a white solid which also contained product. It was determined by NMR that there was some methyl ether remaining, so all the material recovered was suspended in dichloromethane (100 mL) and cooled to 0° C. To this was added boron tribromide (7.0 mL, 0.074 mol) dropwise over 10 minutes and then boron tribromide (1M in dichloromethane, 11.0 mL, 0.0110 mol) dropwise over 10 minutes. After stirring for 5 hours, the reaction was complete as indicated by TLC. The reaction mixture was added to ice water, filtered, and washed with water to provide product (15.24 g, 65%) as a white solid. The layers of the filtrate were separated and extracted with dichloromethane (2×) and 4:1 dichloromethane:isopropyl alcohol. The combined organics were dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate, filtered, and concentrated to give additional product (5.7 g, 24%) as a white solid.

The ability of the compounds of the formula (I) to block the Nav1.7 (or SCN9A) channel were measured using the assay described below.
Cell Line Construction and Maintenance
Human Embryonic Kidney (HEK) cells were transfected with an hSCN9A construct using lipofectamine reagent (Invitrogen), using standard techniques. Cells stably expressing the hSCN9A constructs were identified by their resistance to G-418 (400 μg/ml). Clones were screened for expression using the whole-cell voltage-clamp technique.
Cell Culture
HEK cells stably transfected with hSCN9A were maintained in DMEM medium supplemented with 10% heat-inactivated fetal bovine serum and 400 μg/ml G-418 in an incubator at 37° C. with a humidified atmosphere of 10% CO2. For HTS, cells were harvested from flasks by trypsinization and replated in an appropriate multi-well plate (typically 96 or 384 wells/plate) such that confluence would be achieved within 24 hours of plating. For electrophysiological studies, cells were removed from the culture flask by brief trypsinization and re-plated at low density onto glass cover slips. Cells were typically used for electrophysiological experiments within 24 to 72 hours after plating.
Electrophysiological Recording
Cover slips containing HEK cells expressing hSCN9A were placed in a bath on the stage of an inverted microscope and perfused (approximately 1 ml/minutes) with extracellular solution of the following composition: 138 mM NaCl, 2 mM CaCl2, 5.4 mM KCl, 1 mM MgCl2, 10 mM glucose, and 10 mM HEPES, pH 7.4, with NaOH. Pipettes were filled with an intracellular solution of the following composition: 135 mM CsF, 5 mM CsCl, 2 mM MgCl2, 10 mM EGTA, 10 mM HEPES, pH 7.3 with NaOH, and had a resistance of 1 to 2 megaohms. The osmolarity of the extracellular and intracellular solutions was 300 mOsm/kg and 295 mOsm/kg, respectively. All recordings were made at room temperature (22-24° C.) using AXOPATCH 200B amplifiers and PCLAMP software (Axon Instruments, Burlingame, Calif.).
hSCN9A currents in HEK cells were measured using the whole-cell configuration of the patch-clamp technique (Hamill et al., 1981). Uncompensated series resistance was typically 2 to 5 mega ohms and >85% series resistance compensation was routinely achieved. As a result, voltage errors were negligible and no correction was applied. Current records were acquired at 20 to 50 KHz and filtered at 5 to 10 KHz.
HEK cells stably transfected with hSCN9A were viewed under Hoffman contrast optics and placed in front of an array of flow pipes emitting either control or compound-containing extracellular solutions. All compounds were dissolved in dimethyl sulfoxide to make 10 mM stock solutions, which were then diluted into extracellular solution to attain the final concentrations desired. The final concentration of dimethyl sulfoxide (<0.3% dimethyl sulfoxide) was found to have no significant effect on hSCN9A sodium currents.
The voltage-dependence of inactivation was determined by applying a series of depolarizing prepulses (8 sec long in 10 mV increments) from a negative holding potential. The voltage was then immediately stepped to 0 mV to assess the magnitude of the sodium current. Currents elicited at 0 mV were plotted as a function of prepulse potential to allow estimation of the voltage at which 50% of the channels were inactivated (midpoint of inactivation or V½). Compounds were tested for their ability to inhibit hSCN9A sodium channels by activating the channel with a 20 msec voltage step to 0 mV following an 8 second conditioning prepulse to the empirically determined V½. Compound effect (% inhibition) was determined by difference in current amplitude before and after application of test compounds. For ease of comparison, “estimated IC-50” values were calculated from single point electrophysiology data by the following equation, (tested concentration, uM)×(100-% inhibition/% inhibition). Inhibition values <20% and >80% were excluded from the calculation.
In some cases electrophysiological assays were conducted with PatchXpress 7000 hardware and associated software (Molecular Devices Corp). All assay buffers and solutions were identical to those used in conventional whole-cell voltage clamp experiments described above. hSCN9A cells were grown as above to 50%-80% confluency and harvested by trypsinization. Trypsinized cells were washed and resuspended in extracellular buffer at a concentration of 1×106 cells/ml. The onboard liquid handling facility of the PatchXpress was used for dispensing cells and application of test compounds. Determination of the voltage midpoint of inactivation was as described for conventional whole-cell recordings. Cells were then voltage-clamped to the empirically determined V½ and current was activated by a 20 msec voltage step to 0 mV.
Electrophysiological assays were also conducted using the Ionworks Quattro automated electrophysiological platform (Molecular Devices Corp). Intracellular and extracellular solutions were as described above with the following changes, 100 μg/ml amphotericin was added to the intracellular solution to perforate the membrane and allow electrical access to the cells. hSCN9A cells were grown and harvested as for PatchXpress and cells were resuspended in extracellular solution at a concentration of 3-4×106 cells/ml. The onboard liquid handling facility of the Ionworks Quattro was used for dispensing cells and application of test compounds. A voltage protocol was then applied that comprised of a voltage step to fully inactivate the sodium channels, followed by a brief hyperpolarized recovery period to allow partial recovery from inactivation for unblocked sodium channels, followed by a test depolarized voltage step to assess magnitude of inhibition by test compound. Compound effect was determined based on current amplitude difference between the pre-compound addition and post-compound addition scans. The ability of the compounds of the formula (I) to block the Nav1.5 (or SCN5A) channel can also be measured using an assay analogous to that described above but replacing the SCN9A gene with the SCN5A gene. All other conditions remain the same including the same cell line and conditions for cell growth. The estimated IC50s are determined at the half inactivation for Nav1.5. These results can be compared to the EIC50 value at the Nav1.7 channel to determine the selectivity of a given compound for Nav1.7 vs Nav1.5.
Compounds of the Examples were tested in the assay described above using the PatchXpress platform and found to have the EIC50 values specified in the table below.
